More details are leaking from the set of Grey's Anatomy about the fight that took place last week between co-stars Patrick Dempsey and Isaiah Washington. The National Enquirer broke the story and in this week's issue are now claiming that that Isaiah said some very bad things to Patrick that erupted in the knock down, drag out fight where Washington had Dempsey by the throat.

The Enquirer Reports:

Hot-head Isaiah Washington hurled a vicious gay slur at one of his co-stars during an on-set brawl – and the ugly explosion of hate is ripping apart TV’s number one show. Last week, the ENQUIRER broke the blockbuster news that Isaiah, 43, choked Patrick Dempsey, 40, in an Oct. 9 fight on the set of “Grey’s Anatomy.” And now we can reveal the secret behind the outrage.

“The melee has set off World War III on the show and may cost Isaiah his job,” an insider told The ENQUIRER. “The cast is divided over the shameful event.” As The ENQUIRER exclusively revealed last week, Patrick and Isaiah clashed over cast members being late to the set, right before shooting a scene at Prospect Studios in Los Angeles. A heated discussion quickly escalated to violence when Isaiah snapped, revealed an eyewitness. At one point, Isaiah yelled, “I’m not your little faggot like (name deleted),” according to the source. Those who heard him were stunned. Because of the extreme nature of the slur, The ENQUIRER is withholding the name of the co-star targeted by Washington. During the brawl, an enraged Isaiah grabbed Patrick by the throat and shoved him a few feet.

Oh the drama, drama, duh-rahma! Check out this week's issue of The National Enquirer to learn more about this crazy story.
